ATI 2021 - Very slow backups, UI unusable during backup
Hi,
Just by the way, I was unable to see the forum for ATI 2021 in the list which is why I opted to post here.
I'm experiencing very slow backups and whenever I try to use the interface during backup the UI is terribly slow (often freezing for long periods). (I've also had some crashes and such randomly.)
The drive being backed up is my 1 TB Samsung 970 SSD (300GB available space). Acronis is backing up to a RAID bay which consists of 4x4TB Seagate Iron Wolf drives in RAID 10 over USB 3.2 10Gbps. On a system with a 5950X (16C 32T) w/ 64GB RAM, Windows 11. At the time of the backups, there is little to no other applications using any resources.
The initial backups appeared to be very quick (600mbps+) but now average 50 or less which is taking 10-15 hours.
I have several different backups set (no compression, no encryption) and the task priority is default (low). There are several full backups (e.g., one weekly, one daily but does incremental after the first full).
Any thoughts on what could be wrong?
Cheers
EDIT: Some sample speeds from the activity log:
Full backup | No compression
- 22nd December, 2021: 229.8GB backed up in 27 minutes at 1150Mbps.
- 24th December, 2021: 96.4GB backed up in 1 hr 14 mins at 363 Mbps
- 15th January, 2022: 111.7GB backed up in 4 hrs 7 mins at 61 Mbps
- 26th March, 2022: 126.5GB backed up in 8 hrs 17 mins at 34 Mbps
- 24th April, 2022: 239.6GB backed up in 10 hrs 19 mins at 52 Mbps
Initial full - Incremental after | No compression
- 22nd December, 2021: 229.8GB backed up in 28 mins 3 seconds at 1118.1 Mbps (full)
- 23rd December, 2021: 2.7GB backed up in 11 mins 6 seconds at 32.8 Mbps (inc)
- 22nd April, 2022: 615MB backed up in 32 mins 4 seconds at 2.6 Mbps (inc)
I also have another full backup that is backing up to an SSD consistently between 1100 and 1500 Mbps.
